Access is part of the quote on steep Hidden Hills properties, and any honest estimate says so up front. Los Angeles County is no different.
Most roofs in Hidden Hills fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their working life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later. That is as true in Hidden Hills as anywhere in Los Angeles County. Multi-unit buildings in Hidden Hills as a rule require a low-slope system and a maintenance plan rather than a one-off repair. On most jobs, streets in Hidden Hills that were built out together tend to require roof coverings together, which is why one re-roof frequently brings three more on the same block. It is the same story on most Hidden Hills streets.
